Alanine dehydrogenase (EC 1.4.1.1) is an enzyme that catalyzes the chemical reaction

Contents

L-alanine + H2O + NAD+ pyruvate + NH3 + NADH + H+

The 2 substrates of this enzyme are L-alanine, water, and nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide + because water is 55M and does not change, whereas its 4 products are pyruvate, ammonia, NADH, and hydrogen ion.

This enzyme participates in taurine and hypotaurine metabolism and reductive carboxylate cycle (CO2 fixation).

Nomenclature

This enzyme belongs to the family of oxidoreductases, specifically those acting on the CH-NH2 group of donors with NAD + or NADP + as acceptor. The systematic name of this enzyme class is L-alanine:NAD+ oxidoreductase (deaminating). Other names in common use include AlaDH, L-alanine dehydrogenase, NAD+-linked alanine dehydrogenase, alpha-alanine dehydrogenase, NAD+-dependent alanine dehydrogenase, alanine oxidoreductase, and NADH-dependent alanine dehydrogenase.

Structure

Alanine dehydrogenase contains both a N-terminus [1] and C-terminus domains. [2] [3]

Malate dehydrogenase (EC 1.1.1.37) (MDH) is an enzyme that reversibly catalyzes the oxidation of malate to oxaloacetate using the reduction of NAD+ to NADH. This reaction is part of many metabolic pathways, including the citric acid cycle. Other malate dehydrogenases, which have other EC numbers and catalyze other reactions oxidizing malate, have qualified names like malate dehydrogenase (NADP+).
